letter from Lea Floden

Lea Floden here.

Dan Bonnell and I had our 25th wedding anniversary today. To celebrate, we went to the beach with our daughter Katie and watched the surfers silhouetted against a GORGEOUS sunset. The sunsets are always spectacular when there are fires in Southern california. Sad but true.

Katie just finished her on line driving course and will be taking her written test soon.

Jack Floden is settling in at Sunrise at Santa Monica. he just celebrated his 87th birthday. Lea, Dan and Katie brought a picnic to him. When Lea asked whta he wanted for the picnic, he requested creamed corn (1st choic), baked beans and juicy hot dogs with mushy buns. oh and a white cake with caramel frosting. Lea made the corn herself from an old Texas recipe, and had a 7 layer caramel 7 layer cake shipped in from Maryland! It was rich and yummy. And Jack enjoyed licking the candles. (picture to be sent)

Katie starts 10th grade next week. This summer she did a play at her school, as well as a dance intensive there, and another one at her ballet school. She finished the summer off at an improv class. We will be going to Denvr on Thursday to see Dan's mother, and then Katie is back at school on Tuesday the 8th.
